Seer\u2019s pick rate is on the rise in Apex Legends<\/em>, and pro player Mac \u201cAlbralelie\u201d Beckwith believes it will dominate the meta for a while because of its \u201cgame-breaking\u201d ability to stop teams from resetting fights.<\/p>
The recon legend has surged in popularity. It\u2019s being picked in 4.8% of lobbies<\/a> across all ranked lobbies, making it the seventh most-popular pick<\/a> on the Apex <\/em>roster.<\/p>
Albralelie claims it\u2019s because Seer is totally broken.<\/p>
\u201cThinking from a purely defensive standpoint, Seer is game-breaking in terms of denying resets,\u201d he tweeted<\/a>. \u201cIf the meta evolves into every team having Seer, it’ll be incredibly rare to actually get a knocked player back up during hectic times.\u201d<\/p>
The TSM streamer said it would be interesting to see how the meta evolves around Seer. He predicts it\u2019ll force teams to pick Gibraltar less in favor of a more aggressive lineup, most of which will include Seer, Valkyrie, and a flexible third pick.<\/p>

As for how the developing Apex <\/em>meta can be countered<\/a>, Albralelie believes Mirage seems up to the task on paper. He\u2019s eager to test it out and see for himself in preparation for the Seer-dominant meta that\u2019s brewing.<\/p>
Seer has been controversial<\/a> since releasing in Aug. 2021. People sensed his potential back then and claimed he was overpowered, which spurred significant nerfs<\/a>.<\/p>
If Albralelie is correct, he could be in every game: you’ve been warned.<\/p>
That’s not his only Apex Legends <\/em>concern either though. <\/p>
On May 25, Albralelie called on Respawn to remove gold knockdown shields<\/a>, claiming they\u2019re \u201cdogshit\u201d and ruin lobbies, especially in the late game.<\/p>
Respawn continues to monitor things and fine-tune whatever they believe will disrupt balance, just like they did<\/a> with the Kraber, L-STAR, Rampage, Spitfire, and more.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
